“Multi-Function” to Save Both Money-Budgets and Lives.

A mobile telemedicine cart should be versatile enough to handle routine day-to-day procedures but capable enough to manage unexpected emergencies as well. One should not have to purchase multiple carts to fit multiple needs. One cart should “do-it-all“
..it should be an “all-in-one” solution.

The First “Virtual Ambulance™”.

Now with the world’s most advanced Emergency Crash Cart, hospital Crash Cart Teams may deploy a cart where specialists may respond in seconds no matter where they are. They may simply login remotely to the cart system to be “virtually” on-the-scene.

Video-Conferencing is Not Telemedicine.

If one looks at the prominent telemedicine cart suppliers today, you may be shocked to find out most have little or no experience in the healthcare field at all; little knowledge of medical devices and acquiring critical life-saving physiologic information. Most are dedicated to performing video teleconferencing only and have a history as only audio visual specialists. view more..

Exclusive Telemedicine Technologies Developed with the U.S. Military.

LifeBot mobile telemedicine carts are the first and only carts designed to transmit “live” voice, video and full patient physiological data. This is the data usually acquired by complete physiological monitoring systems that are connected directly to the patient. Such parameters include ECG, Pulse Ox, NIBP, Invasive BP, and much much more. LifeBot carts utilize DREAMS™ technologies developed with the U.S. Military making them the most advanced in the world. view more..

The DREAMS™ system was conceived by renowned trauma surgeon James “Red” Duke, Jr. Dr. Duke and S. Ward Cassells, M.D, former Assistant Secretary of Defense (Medical Affairs, received the General Maxwell Thurman Award for these designs at the national meeting of the American Telemedicine Association.

LifeBot announced it has certified Odyssey Decision Support Software (DSS), the most advanced patient assessment system for Emergency EMS use, for use on it’s LifeBot® Slate tablet PC. The software may also run simultaneously the the tabelt PC with the LifeBot DREAMS telemedicine client.

Odyssey and DREAMS™ Telemedicine Integrated

Odyssey is a critical component for Community Paramedicine and Mobile Healthcare delivery. It provides for fast, safe, more accurate patient assessments in just minutes. LifeBot has issued a new technology guide entitled “Responding to the Needs of Community Paramedicine”. The guide details how the DREAMS telemedicine system, developed with the U.S. Military, is combined with Odyssey to form a powerful combination. Now each may run on the 1.5 pound portable Hewlett Packard Slate 2.

Odyssey may be utilized at the priority dispatch level, in emergency departments, clinical patient non-emergency calls centers, and in telemedicine tele-hub operations. Extremely successful, it now occupies more than sixty percent of the market for General Practitioners in the U.K. handling more than 18 million calls over a 15 year period without any major legal issues. No other clinical decision support software can make these claims. Average patient assessment times may be as little as 5 or 6 minutes, virtually eliminating ‘over-triaging’. While simultaneously increasing efficiencies, it significantly reduces the risks associated with medical errors.

Why Decision Support Software?

The Odyssey DSS performs real-time patient assessments referencing over one million words of clinical data. The human brain simply cannot perform this function. But Odyssey can, and it can do this in just a few minutes. It provides a vivid list of differential diagnoses in just seconds. This not only speeds assessments and care, but significantly lowers risks and errors.

Fast accurate pre-hospital patient assessments are also required in the design of an EMS Mobile Healthcare System. So Odyssey is not just for use in dispatch tele-nursing. The use of DSS at both the dispatch and on-board pre-hospital vehicles provides for an early alert system for discerning whether one is dealing with an emergent or non-emergent situation. Errors and risk may be significantly reduced in both areas of use.

Odyssey is the first integral component for forging a pathway to millions in healthcare delivery savings in the EMS Mobile Healthcare model; to demonstrate significant savings similar to those already produced in the UK over many years.

EMS Mobile Healthcare Systems
LifeBot Technology Design Guide Kit

This is a comprehensive guide to the deployment of the Mobile Primary Care Unit (MPCU) for delivering primary care via EMS providers. This guide also is a detailed presentation on EMS Telemedicine and the prospects for using these technologies for substantially reducing healthcare costs.

Crucial to these systems is the use of Decision Support Software (DSS) to triage callers at the dispatch, call-center, and in actual field operations to determine if a call or a patient is an actual emergency (emergent) or non-emergency (non-emergent). Also reviewed is the crucial nature of EMS Telemedicine to “look inside” and acquire critical physiological data and transmit this to hospital physicians and specialists to save lives.

The Role of Triage in Electronic Health Records (EHR)

The first step in building patient records is triage or teletriage. This is the start of initializing the whole process of managing electronic patient records. EHR (Electronic Health Record), EMR (Electronic Medical Record), and ePCR (electronic Patient Care Record) all need to be merged, but currently lack data interoperability or compatibility, particularly between hospital and prehospital based systems. Look to LifeBot® to be the first to fully integrate all of these and meet the NEMSIS 3.0 telemedicine multimedia integration standards. Stay tuned to this page for major developments in this area. This is why we are concentrating our efforts in this area at the beginning.

Triage and TeleTriage clinical Decision Support Software (DSS) are necessary ‘front ends’ to properly and safely manage health care patient record systems. A triage system is only as good as the amount of accurate clinical information it contains and how easily and quickly patient assessments may be executed. That’s why our teletriage systems, Odyssey, have the most highly developed databases for this purpose. This highly developed system contains more than one million words of clinical triage information for safe and accurate assessments. It can substantially lower risks and more clearly determine emergent or nonemergent status of a patient at the earliest stages of patient record management. Data may be transferred into ambulance or hospital record systems once responsive triage is executed.
